Pickup in Los Angeles
We collect from any address in the Los Angeles area — home, workplace, dealership, storage lot or auction yard. The driver calls ahead to confirm, walks the vehicle with you, and records its condition on the Bill of Lading before loading. You both sign it, and that document is the basis of any claim later.
Delivery in Kansas City
The driver calls again before arriving in Kansas City. Inspect the vehicle against the same report, sign it off, pay the balance and you are done. Someone has to be present at both ends — it can be you, a friend, a relative, or a dealership employee you name at booking.
Open or enclosed on this route
Open transport is the right call for most vehicles on this lane and is what the $1,890 figure covers. Choose enclosed if the vehicle is a classic, an exotic, sits under five inches of ground clearance, or is worth enough that $500 is not worth thinking about. On a 1,590-mile run that brings the total to $2,390.

What Customers Say
Shipped my Tacoma from Chicago to Phoenix. Quote on the site was $1,750 and that is exactly what I paid — no surprise fees at delivery like the last company pulled on me. Driver called ahead both ends.
Used them for our seasonal move to Florida two years running. Booked three weeks out both times, car showed up clean and on schedule. The dispatcher actually answers the phone, which is more than I can say for the big brokers.
Enclosed transport for a 1969 Camaro. Lift gate, soft straps, driver knew what he was doing and sent photos at pickup. Worth the extra $500 for a car I have had for 30 years.
